Can you tell us a little about you and how did you start modelling?

Of course! I was born and raised in Kazakhstan, and interestingly, my journey into modeling began at a young age. My mom is a designer, and growing up in a creative environment, I was naturally drawn to the world of fashion. I started my modeling career at the age of 13, initially taking classes to learn everything from runway walking to makeup application. With my mom's expertise in designer clothing, it made my early foray into modeling relatively seamless. However, I took a break to pursue a degree in finance and accounting. It was during my time living in LA and being surrounded by friends in various entertainment careers that I felt the urge to return to modeling. With their support and encouragement, I decided to dive back in, and here I am today.

If you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?

Self-Improvement: If I could change anything about myself, it would be my tendency to be overly self-critical at times. I believe in continuous self-improvement, and I'm working on being more self-compassionate.

What do you think of the work as a model?

The modeling industry is undeniably competitive. It's a field where you constantly have to prove yourself and adapt to the ever-evolving trends and standards. It can be challenging, but I believe that the challenges are what make it exciting and fulfilling.

What is your beauty regimen?

Absolutely. I'm a firm believer in taking care of my health. I'm currently following an intermediate diet and make it a point to stay active. Yoga has been my go-to workout, as it not only keeps me fit but also helps me find balance in a busy schedule.

What are your personal qualities which distinguish you from others?

That's a tough one. I'd like to think it's my persistence and willingness to keep pushing myself to improve. I'm always open to learning and growing, positive attitude and I believe that quality sets me apart.

What are your plans for the future?

In addition to modeling, I've also studied acting, which has been incredibly enjoyable. I plan to explore acting opportunities further. Modeling-wise, I aim to broaden my horizons internationally and continue working with creative and talented individuals.

What are some of your favorite experiences so far?

I’ve had the pleasure of working with some amazing friends in the industry, and those collaborations have been particularly memorable. Additionally, I've had some fantastic outdoor shoots that allowed for a lot of creativity and resulted in stunning visuals.

Do you have any advice for those who want to start modelling?

To all the aspiring models out there, my advice would be not to give up on your dreams. Pursuing a career in modeling can be challenging, but if it's what makes you truly happy, it's absolutely worth it. Stay dedicated, work hard, and believe in yourself.

What do you think of the magazine?

I think the magazine is a fantastic platform for showcasing the world of fashion and beauty. It provides a valuable space for industry professionals and enthusiasts to connect, share ideas, and celebrate creativity.
